It was winter in January

For our wedding anniversary I got those two cure mugs by my favourite chalk artist and his book from my husband.

This year we decided to spend the anniversary weekend in Pärnu and booked a room in Hedon SPA. Overlooking the snow covered beach. Right before leaving we went to our terrace and built an Angry Bird and Nikita, who remained there waiting for us.

For the first night we had reservations to restaurant Raimond. The menu sounded absolutely delicious and we were pretty excited. It did appear that most of the effort had gone into presentation and less into seasoning. We were not impressed.

Considering that it was winter and even though most of the years you can't really tell winter form summer and can swim the year round, this winter is cold and snowy, we decided against beach time and had booked the Silent SPA in Hedon. It was basically two hour bliss in the old mud treatment place - we soaked in little pool with salt water, relaxed and had facials.

Dinner in the second, less fine dine restaurant in the hotel was much more delightful and we left with a few additional pounds.

2020

 

 

In January we spent our anniversary in Laulasmaa and in February made a roadtrip to Riga. In March I managed to squeeze in a quick sunbathing trip to Sharm-El-Sheik and after that our trips to Georgia, Poland and Switzerland were cancelled. Instead we had long walks in old town and watched, how the nature is blooming again. We followed the cherry and all other blossoms. In May we had the first post-corona trip and mid of May went to Tartu and Pühajärve. We spent my birthday in Pärnu and midsummer in Haapsalu. We ate a lot of local strawberries. And picked some too.

In July we flew to US and said farewell to our beautiful home in Ann Arbor. And to all squirrels. In August we had a road trip to Latvia and Lithuania and bought us a new home in Kassisaba. We spent September on our new huge terrace and in October went to Laulasmaa for Scott's birthday. In November I changed jobs and for Christmas we brought a Canadian spruce on our terrace.

Book Year 2020

2020 I read and listened to 60 books in total: the least in August (only one) and the most in November and December (each 10). Altogether I read 44 and listened to 16 books.
